mrty's movie Reviews on Newgrounds

[Battle of the Best]

Nice try.

First of all, I didn't care much about the fact that it was "another sprite movie", because the fight was pretty good. It was exciting and fast paced, so it was blood pumping.

Although this was a sprite movie, some of the drawings you made were pretty good, like when Ryu was turning into Evil Ryu. However, I must say that the text was poor. The beginning texts were outlined in red and the fill was a weird black and white gradient. It's like you tried to make a unique style of text, but I think it would have been better if you just sticked to the normal text tool. I also think that the "FIGHT" text needs some editing, such as shading and different fonts.

Like I mentioned before, the fight was pretty good. It was a creative one, not just a simple and dull series of punches and kicks. I didn't like the ending, though. Ryu dies with his body splitting into two with poorly drawn blood spilling out of him, and a truck randomly falls on Ken? Personally I think you could have came up with a much better ending, like them stopping fighting somehow and becoming friends again. Or maybe some other threat showing up, then Ryu and Ken teaming up and defeating the threat.

By the way, the movie's supposed to be about a tournament, but it only showed one fight, and no other info about the tournament was revealed. Assuming that you're planning to release sequels, I don't think it's a bad start.

The REPLAY button doesn't work. It just rewinds to the part where the truck falls. I'm sorry but I'll have to take off a point for your lack of awareness and double checking.

The sounds were good and the music fit well. I'd suggest you give audio credits though, since they don't show up on the left.

Points taken off:
- 2 points for the lack of originality.
- 1 point for some of the poor graphics.
- 1 point for the lack of carefulness, since you aren't aware that the REPLAY button won't work.

I'd say a pretty good sprite movie, overall. I hope you release sequels to this, because you have the potential. Good luck on your future projects.

Awesome, thanks for taking the time to review my flash. I actually was going to make a longer ending, with ken and ryu teaming up against another threat. That was the orginal plan. Then I decided later that the two would get too powerful and kill eachother. But in the long run, the flash size was getting big and other issues were happening with the flash. So I know that the ending wasnt anything too special but I hope to improve on that in the sequel. I made the tournament thing with the intent of there being more than one. Hopefully I can improve on some of the things you mentioned.

[Evolution of The Thing]

Hahahaha...

Nice movie. Another good thing you pulled off. I liked the idea - i think you were trying to show how Earth originated- even though i couldn't really understand what was going on. Example: there was a white circle with yellow dots in it. What was it? An egg? Maybe a cell? And this movie actually DOES have a point, how Earth originated perhaps?

Also, you might want to add some more detail. Like, where was that water in the beginning dripping from? Or, how did that "white circle with yellow dots" turn into Earth? A chemical reaction? :P

Well, it's a nice movie. I laughed at the ending. You are creative (like me :P), use this to your advantage and keep making more. If you like the way i'm reviewing your flashes, i might review your others too. I would love to :))

Waiting for more,

Archawn responds:

Sure, review them if you want... I like your review style...

And mrty--The "white thing with yellow dots" is the moon...

[aoto teaser]

Good.

I liked the graphics and the animation but i couldn't understand anything. Did you make it confusing on purpose to make us look forward to the movie or what?

Dossfilm responds:

yes

[Freezepop's JEM!]

umm

This is much, very much better than your other flashes. In this one, you are at least dancing, not saying "Hey everybody! Let's have a party!" with a horrible and scary face expression, or making weird noises and looking like having a sex. The song is good. To be exact, i kinda enjoyed this.

Viewtiful-Chris responds:

"looking like having a sex"

LAWL.

[Story of Kratos]

10/10 and 5/5!!

Realistic, cool graphics, cool animation, and really told the story of Kratos. I'm a big fan of God of War! Good job and i want to see more.

KartuneHustla responds:

Hahah you will definitely see more flashes. Maybe a Castlevania flash ???????? (super secret

[RanCam]

Whoa

What-the-fuck-is-this? Does this have any point? I voted 0.

RanHam335 responds:
